remove the silencer and get a K&N air filter, that is a good cheap start. total cost is about 30 bucks. that is the first thing that i did with my car, about 2-3 days after i got it.
that's really all there is, unfortunately.

I would be interested to know how much weight could be removed if you pulled out the seats, spare, carpet and radio.

Find someone with an 03 cobra... "accidentally" pop the hood.... swap motors. It costs nothing and will free up about 150 hp.





Driver mod is free.

Like .2 worth... insanely ****ing pointless is how much its worth haha. You could empty your car out and have a drivers seat, steering wheel, no dash trim windows anything... and still get beat by a stock LS1.

Blockin the EGR might give you a little boost but probably nothing drastic.
